Supplier Management and Purchase Orders

Track your product suppliers, create purchase orders, and manage stock replenishment.

What is suppliers & orders?

Supplier management in salon software is the process of tracking your product vendors and creating purchase orders to replenish stock before you run out. Bella Booking lets you store supplier contact details, see which products you order from each supplier, and generate orders when stock falls low. Each order tracks its status from ordered through to received, and received stock automatically updates your inventory levels so counts stay accurate.

What's included

Key capabilities of suppliers & orders

Supplier profiles

Store each supplier's name, contact person, email, and phone number. Keep all your supplier information in one place.

Products by supplier

Open a supplier to see the products you order from them. The list is built from your purchase order history, so it reflects what you actually buy — there is no product-to-supplier assignment to maintain.

Purchase orders

Create purchase orders specifying products, quantities, and costs. Share them with your suppliers and track their status.

Order status tracking

Track orders through ordered, received, and cancelled stages. Mark orders as received to add the incoming stock to your inventory.

Restock workflow

Sort your product list by stock quantity to bring the lowest counts to the top, then create a supplier order. Receiving the order adds the stock back automatically.

Frequently asked questions

Can I track which products come from which supplier?

Yes. Each supplier shows the products you order from them, built from your purchase order history. There is no separate step to assign a product to a supplier — ordering it once is what creates the link.

Does receiving an order update stock levels?

Yes. When you mark a supplier order as received, the received quantities are added to your stock automatically, and each increase is recorded in the product's inventory audit trail.

Can I create a purchase order from low stock alerts?

Automatic low-stock alerts aren't available yet — nothing notifies you. Sort the products list by stock quantity instead: tracked products come first with the lowest counts at the top, untracked "Unlimited" products sort last, and anything low or out of stock is flagged. Then create a supplier order and add those products.
